[narrator] Previously on Return to Amish...
[Jeremiah] Dennis was supposed to be my father.
So, let me get this straight.
So, my mother cheated with her sister's husband.
And then, my aunt killed him.
Seems to be.
[Maureen] We're going back to Pennsylvania.
I'm so excited that I can finally see Daniel again.
And I hope he's ready to make a commitment to me.
I don't want you to message other girls.
Maybe I won't have to message anybody
if you would freaking talk to me.
Now you're [bleep] lying again!
It's all you do, is [bleep] lie to me!
I hate you. Just leave.
♪ Whoa-oh, whoa-oh ♪
♪ I'mma get me ♪
Today, I'm gonna go see Daniel and I am so excited.

♪ Whoa-oh ♪
[Daniel] Maureen and I have been talking on the phone everyday.
Our feelings are getting pretty serious.
And now, she's telling me
she wants to talk to me about something really serious.
I just know she's gonna want me to commit to her in some way.
But see, the problem is,
she's a really respected girl in the Amish community.
And, uh...
I don't think she would even consider leaving the Amish
if it weren't for her crush on me.
And I don't want her to lose her family,
her friends, and her respect for the community,
all because of me.
Uh...
I just don't want that to happen.
[sighs]
[both speaking Pennsylvania Dutch]
[in English] Daniel is ex-Amish.
He's been English for over four years.
He is so kind and caring and...
I've had a crush on him for years.
[Maureen giggling]
Danny and I kept in touch while I was in Florida,
and I'm ready to take the next step in our relationship.
[Maureen] What do you got?
My mom made us these sandwiches here.
- Here's yours. - Thank you.
What?
[speaking Pennsylvania Dutch]
I don't know, ham and cheese? I don't know.
[laughing]
I hope you like ham and cheese sandwiches.
-[in English] Ham is my favorite. -That's good.
Thank you.
[laughs]
What?
[both laughing]
[both speaking Pennsylvania Dutch]
[both laughing]
[in English] Danny makes me feel giddy
like one of the school girls when they have a crush on a boy.
I can't stop giggling.
This is the first time I've been alone with a boy.
[both laughing]
Cheers.
[both chuckle]
[Maureen speaking Pennsylvania Dutch]
[speaking Pennsylvania Dutch]
[Maureen speaking Pennsylvania Dutch]
[in English] Cheers.
[speaking Pennsylvania Dutch]
- [in English] Can I tell you something? - What?
[speaking Pennsylvania Dutch]
[giggles]
-[both chuckle] -[in English] Nothin'. Come on!
[both giggling]
[both speaking Pennsylvania Dutch]
[Maureen speaking English] I can see the wheels spinning in Danny's head
that he's gonna try and get me to sleep at his house and have sex with me.
I really want to stick with my Amish values,
but Danny, he is so handsome.
[speaking Pennsylvania Dutch]
[in English] My heart starts racing because I've never been kissed before.
We had our first kiss.
I felt dizzy.
And I felt like there was nothing else in the world.
Like, we were-- it was like--
I don't know.
I didn't really know what was happening, but I knew what--
Like, I was so happy and I was surprised that it finally happened.
[giggling]
[Maureen] That was an English kiss.
I feel I'm pretty good at English kissing.
Danny is an amazing kisser.
It was just the best day of my life.
I had so many butterflies
and I just felt like the happiest girl.
I don't know if I can wait till marriage
to be fully with him.
[Sabrina] Me and Jethro got into a fight because...
I went to the bedroom
and Jethro's phone happened to be laying there
and I saw a whole freaking bunch of messages on it from girls.
I said some things in anger that I really didn't mean.
[door closes]
I did tell him that I wanted him to leave, but I didn't mean it.
I want our family to be together.
So you want to leave this house that has free rent in it
when you have a job and everything else and everything all set up
and go live in your grandmother's [bleep]-covered apartment?
[Jethro] No.
[Sabrina] You have a job here. You have a home.
You have two children that love the [bleep] out of you.
You have me.
I might have my issues, yes, but you know damn well that I love you.
How do I know that?
I wouldn't be standing right here
trying to talk some sense into your head if I didn't.
You're leaving literally--
My birthday is in three [bleep] days.
Father's Day is tomorrow.
[Jethro] I love Sabrina,
but I need a breather.
Just get away for a bit and just like...
try to calm down and think through things and kinda like...
Try to--
I don't even know how to say it, like...
[Sabrina] Zekiah is gonna wake up and wonder
where the [bleep] his daddy went.
I'm not using them.
I'm trying to talk to you for him since he can't talk.
[Sabrina] You don't wanna get married.
I don't think you ever did.
'Cause isn't this what marriage is about?
Marriage isn't running when [bleep] gets hard.
[Jethro] All I did was text a girl. I didn't cheat.
And all Sabrina does is hold it against me
to prove to me that I'm some type of bad person.
She makes me feel like I'm not good enough to be her husband.
I'm just her boyfriend, that's it.
[Sabrina sniffling]
I just...
I'm fighting so that you know that...
you look back and remember that this is me trying.
What happened to you?
Why are you so cold?
[Jethro] I'm sick and tired of being sick and tired.
[Sabrina] Well, I... You know what I prayed?
I prayed to God, I said, "God, if it's meant to be,
he will stay."
So, you leaving is my answer. Even though it sucks.
- Is this John? - [John over phone] This is he.
I believe we are related.
[John speaking]
[Rosanna speaking]
I was 16 when I...
went and pulled my teeth.
[Rosanna speaking]
I was 16 when I went and I pulled my teeth and...
then I got dentures.
I went to an Amish dentist to do it.
But you're not even, like, by yourself, like, to get your dentures made.
Like, other people come in, like, to get their teeth done, too, and, like,
everyone's just standing around there watching you.
And he had to make me, like, three pairs before I actually fit them.
And they're still like...
I still don't really fit them right.
[phone buzzing]
I always dreamed of having a phone,
but living in the Amish, we weren't allowed to.
So, before me and Maureen left Florida, we both bought us a phone.
This is a modern cell phone.
This thing can do everything.
Would you like to see how it works?
-[Rosanna] Uh, yes, please, -Okay, cool.
So, we're gonna call the shop.
I'm just gonna make a test call. You wanna try it?
- Yes, the green? - [salesman] That's it.
[phone ringing]
Hello?
[Maureen] Hi.
- Can you hear me? - Yes.
[Rosanna] I think it is kinda cool to have a phone.
I think it would actually be good for Amish people to have phones in their house.
That way, like, if something would happen,
like, they would have a phone right there to call.
[phone buzzing]
Hello.
Hey, what's up? How are you?
[Rosanna giggles]
I'm doing good, what about you?
Good.
[Rosanna] Claudia is my new English friend
that I met in Florida at the bathing suit shop.
[Claudia] Where are you guys from?
[Maureen] Western Pennsylvania.
Oh, my gosh! I'm from Pennsylvania, too.
- Are you? Really? - Yeah.
What are you doing down here?
My family lives in Florida for the summers.
So I work at this store, just, like, seasonally.
- Can I give you my number? - Yeah.
[Claudia] And then we can hang out and stuff.
- Yeah, let's definitely do that. - Yeah, that'd be great.
Yeah, that'll be fun.
[Rosanna] She's a really sweet girl
and we've been keeping in touch.
[Claudia speaking over phone]
Uh-huh.
Uh, I'm not sure, but yeah, we definitely wanna hang out.
[Rosanna] Yeah. Mm-hmm.
Yeah, I'm looking forward to it.
Yeah, I like trampolines.
[Rosanna] That would be fun.
Yeah. If they're as nice as you are, like, that would be awesome.
[chuckles]
[Claudia speaking]
I'm excited to see Claudia
because I'm still deciding if I wanna stay English or if I wanna go back Amish.
I think you're fun to hang out with.
I'm glad I met you too, like.
[Rosanna] I miss my family,
but I wanna make new friends.
And me and Claudia can really get along.
And it feels like God just... made us to meet.
So, yeah, I'll be looking forward to meeting you.
I mean, meeting you and your friends. [chuckles]
Okay, well, I hope you have a safe trip.
And I'll be looking forward to seeing you.
Yeah, okay, bye.
[Rosanna] It's really exciting, like, to have English friends
and, like, go out and do stuff with them.
It's really exciting.
[Sabrina] I don't know how somebody can flip like this in an instant.
Like, why did you build a family with me just to [bleep] send it up in flames?
[Jethro speaking]
I really love Sabrina more than anything.
But lately, she...
really criticizes me a lot.
So, I feel like...
I need to just get out of here for a little bit.
I just can't believe that you left me here all alone.
You know nobody's around right now.
[sniffles]
I literally have nobody down here.
You're the one person I have down here
and you're [bleep] ditching me.
You're always either yelling at me or crying.
You said I don't make you happy.
Why would I stay here if that's what you said?
And I know that's what you meant.
[Sabrina] No, that's not--
You can't go back now just because you see that I'm actually serious.
I'm gonna die [bleep] broken heart 'cause you left.
This is what it meant.
And you do make me happy when you're nice.
When we're not fighting.
You know that.
I just...
I don't...
know why I can't make you happy.
I tried really hard.
I thought your two children would make you happy.
[sniffles]
I would have done anything for you.
[sobbing]
Yeah, I wanna, but she's gonna hold it against me
and think that I'm--
[sighs] Oh, my gosh.
[Jethro] I don't know.
She told me... She keeps telling me, like,
"I'm not marrying you," and this and that and, like...
Yeah.
She thinks that I'm just trying to leave her for good and, like, that's not--
That's not what I wanna do, really.
[Jethro sighs]
[Jethro] Yeah, 'cause I'm not gonna get a round ticket
and pay more money if she don't want me to come back.
It's probably not the best idea to just up and leave.
But...
I feel like I had no choice.
[Sabrina sobbing]
[Jethro speaking]
[Jethro] Baby...
[Sabrina sobbing]
[Jethro] Sabrina's feelings aren't the only ones that are hurt here.
She said that she was never gonna forgive me
and she was done with me and everything
and she just didn't need this and stuff,
so, I was, like, getting depressed and stressed out.
I just felt like I had to leave.
I just couldn't do it anymore.
[Jethro] It's okay.
I love you.

[Sabrina] It's whatever. He made his choice.
You never know what you have until it's gone.
He didn't even say bye to Zekiah.
Or Skylar, for that matter.
He's leaving me here in Florida all alone.
The rest of them, they're not here.
Ada and none of them are here right now.
I'm literally here alone with two babies
and I don't know anybody here.
[Carmela] Hey.
- Yeah? - So...
I was doing some research.
- Okay. - And I found this number.
Carmela was looking online trying to figure out,
you know, who my family members are on my father's side
and she came up with this number,
and said that she believes this is my cousin and she wanted me to call.
I think that might be your family member.
I wanted him to call, so that way he could find out
if this is the family and maybe get to know them.
Hopefully build a relationship.
There's so many what-ifs right now.
What, are you afraid to find the truth?
Are you afraid that he might not accept you?
Well...
I mean, the only way to find that out is to...
to make the move.
I mean, you won't know if you don't try.
Come on, Jeremiah. What do you have to lose?
Just call.
A lot.
The only thing you'll gain is answers.
That's it.
Who knows? This could be something great.
This could be your family member.
[sighs]
I know. Trust me, I know, I...
I think you should just call.
But what if it's not him?
Then we'll keep looking.
I'll keep researching until we find him.
You wanna call?
This is something that you have to do.
But I'll be right here.
Wow.
You know, I'm just concerned that my dad's family, the Hiltebeitels,
could blame me for my father's murder.
You know, I've had way too many rejections in my life,
and if they would reject me,
honestly, that would be very hurtful.
Guess I'll call them.
[Carmela] Okay.
[line ringing]
[John] Hello?
Yeah, is this John?
This is he.
Hey, this is Jeremiah. This is Jeremiah. Um...
I did a little research and I got your number,
so I just thought I'd give you a call. Um...
I believe we are related.
[John speaking]
Yeah, my... my father would have been Larry Hiltebeitel.
[John speaking]
You're my cousin?
Oh, wow.
Wow.
So...
Wow...
What all can you tell me about my father?
Um...
well, I can tell you a few things, I guess, but...
I really think we should probably, um, meet face to face
and we have a few things we could talk about.
Um...
I live in Michigan. You think you could come down and...
visit?
Yeah, I can make that happen.
- All right. - Um...
Yeah, um...
This--
I should be able to answer a bunch of your questions...
Awesome.
...um, face to face.
Yeah. So, this is my number.
Um, is it any way possible that you could somehow text me your address
and then... we'll come up there. We'll talk.
Yeah, I can send you all the information.
- Okay, that'll work. - All right.
I look forward to meeting you.
Thanks. Me, too.
- All right, bye. - Yeah, bye.
No, just-- [chuckles]
This is just awesome news, you know?
It's just so much to take in right now. I'm--
Wow. This is like a brain overload.
Aren't you happy I made you call?
Yeah.

Oh, wow! Rose, look how big this is.
- Five barns would fit in here. - [Rosanna] For real.
[Rosanna] Today, we're meeting up with Claudia and her friends.
And I am very excited.
[chuckles]
[Rosanna] Let's go find my friend, Claudia.
Come with me.
This is Dan and I's first time going out in the English world as a couple
and I'm so excited to show him off.
Oh, my God! Hi!
- Rosanna, it's so good to see you. - Hi!
- Yeah, it's nice to see you, too. - How are you?
-Oh, I'm pretty good. What about you? -Good.
- Hi, Maureen. I'm good. - Hi!
- How are you guys? - Good.
Oh, is this for me?
- Yes. - Oh, my God!
Thanks. What is this?
They're peaches. Like, candied peaches from the garden.
- Wow! That's awesome. - Yeah.
Usually, at, like, a hangout like this,
somebody would probably bring a bottle of wine or a six-pack,
but this is good. I'm glad, I'm glad.
[Rosanna speaking]
[chuckles]
- You didn't meet Danny yet. - No, I haven't.
- Hey, Danny. I'm Claudia. - [Daniel] Hi, nice to meet you.
Nice to meet you.
Let me introduce you to all my friends. Come over here. Come here.
This is Rosanna, Maureen, her boyfriend Danny.
This is Ari, Michael, Nick, Harris, Liv and Sam.
- Hi. - Cool.
Are you guys allowed to jump in your dresses?
- Well, yeah. Yes. - Yes. [laughs]
Yeah.
[Nick speaking]
Yeah.
We make pretty much everything, like, on our own.
How long does one hat last you?
- Kinda... - Not long.
[Rosanna] Yeah, it doesn't last.
[Maureen] No, not long at all.
If they get wet or something, like, then they go--
[Michael] If they get wet?
Yeah, like, they go-- They get out like...
They stretch out.
- Wow. - [Maureen] Yeah, like... Yeah.
[Claudia] What are they made out of?
Cotton?
No it's... I don't know what it is.
Some kind of a material or something.
[Maureen] I don't know, but it's dumb.
[all laughing]
Feel 'em.
- [Liv] Oh, wow! - [Sam] Oh, my God!
And you guys made these by hand, too, or no?
- [Maureen] Yes. - [Claudia] Oh, my God!
And you guys have to make a new one every time?
- [Maureen] Yeah. Yes. - Are you allowed to take them off?
Yes. Yeah, we're allowed.
- So, you wanna go bounce? - [Rosanna] Yeah, I'll go bounce.
- Let's go! - [laughing]
[Rosanna] Claudia's friends are all amazing and really nice.
[Nick] I've never really met anyone like you before.
Do you wanna go out sometime?
[Sabrina] Jethro took off a couple of days ago.
Zekiah doesn't understand what's going on.
[Ada] I can't believe that Jethro left her.
He's a total jerk.
I am so excited to hang out with Claudia.
We always have so much fun together.
[both exclaiming]
Let me pull my cap off.
I just always wanted to hang out with English girls.
And now, having Claudia is so much fun.
[Maureen cheering]
[upbeat music playing]
Whoa!
- It's so hot in here. - Yeah. I'm hot.
- Like, I'm literally sweating. - I'm sweating so much.
[Maureen] I don't know how to say this,
but Rosanna lights up when she sees Claudia.
I mean, it's a side of her that I've never seen before.
You have to get it back for me.
[Nick] Rosanna, here.
That was bad.
Oh, I just nailed her right in the face. That wasn't good at all.
Sorry, Sam.
- [Nick] Yeah, Rosanna, let's do it together. - Oh, yeah, yeah.
We're gonna bounce on to that wall and back. Ready?
- Uh-huh. - All right.
One big jump here, one big jump there,
- and then on to the wall, ready? - Okay.
All right, one, two, three.
Whoo!
[Nick] You good? Come here.
[Rosanna] Yeah, I'm good.
[Claudia] Oh, my God. This is so cute.
- [Liv] Come on, Nick! - I can't do it!
[Claudia] Ready? Ready? Let's jump together. Ready? Jump.
Now, we try to time it at the same time.
So, jump with me, jump with me, jump with me.
One, two, three.
[all cheering]
- [Nick] Ready? - Uh-huh.
One, two, three.
[both exclaim]
[Nick laughing]
That was a good one.
[Nick] I'm done. Let's go get a drink.
- [Rosanna] Yeah. - [Nick] Let's go.
I think Nick was nervous around me
because his hands were all...
sweaty and shaky.
[Rosanna] And...
Amish guys are usually more confident.
So I felt really weird to be around him.
So, where have you been before this?
Like, have you visited any other places
since you left the Amish village?
[Rosanna] Uh...
yeah, I was out in Florida.
[Claudia] If I could pick one of my guy friends for Rosanna
to really, like, hit it off with, it would definitely be Nick.
Nick is just, like, that kinda guy.
I knew that, like, as soon as he met Rosanna,
and her, like, being a little bit quieter and, like, shy,
I knew that he would, kind of, want to, like,
break her out of her shell a little bit.
I go to the University of Chicago, but what about you?
Where do you go?
Like in Amish, we just had to go to school like until...
ninth grade.
- Really? - [Rosanna] Yeah.
Like, we just went up to ninth grade
and then we didn't have to go anymore.
- That's crazy to think about. - So, yeah.
I'm still in school right now and I'm 21.
It's so different from anything I've experienced before,
but that being said, it's also super interesting.
She's had real-world, like, practical experience.
I mean, I've only experienced English lifestyle.
So, in some ways, I think she honestly has more perspective than I do.
You think you like this more, so far?
- Are you having a good time with it? - Yeah.
Oh, yeah. I like it a lot better than being Amish.
I mean, I'm sure it's scary. First trying to branch out--
Oh, yeah. It is. Like...
No, seriously, I think it's super brave of you.
- You mean, to come out here? - Yeah, seriously.
Oh! All right, it's kinda scary, though,
like, right at first, like, 'cause it's-- I don't know.
Yeah, it's a whole different world for you. I completely get that.
I don't know, it's just, I've never really met anyone like you before.
- It's so crazy to me. - Oh.
I don't know. Do you wanna go out some time?
Well, I'm not looking to get married.
[chuckles] No, no, no, no.
I'm not saying get married or anything like that. But, um...
I don't know, it's difficult for us, like...
Before you get married and everything else,
you take people on dates, to, I don't know, see--
Oh, yeah. I got you.
Yeah, like if you're compatible with someone, you know?
It's probably like same as Amish, actually.
Oh, yeah?
Except we're just only asked for dates, like, on Sunday nights.
- Only on Sunday nights? - Yeah.
I don't know, it's weird how it works,
but I guess that's how it is.
Well, I promise I'm not gonna pick you up from a horse and buggy.
But I'm gonna come in my car and I'm gonna pick you up and we're gonna go on a date.
That sound good to you?
- Okay, yeah. - Okay, good.
[Nick] Rosanna seemed like an awesome person.
And I'm really looking forward.
She actually agreed to go out on a date with me.
It's just so incredible to me.
That's so brave of you to be able to step out of your comfort zone
- and do something like that. - Oh.
- Yeah. It's a big step. - No, it's really inspiring.
Seriously.
Thank you.
But yeah, like, it's a big step to make, you know?
Hey, guys. How are you doing? You having fun?
[Rosanna] Oh, yeah, I'm having fun.
[Claudia] You're having fun? Are you treating her right?
[Nick] I promise, Claudia. You know I'd always--
This is my dear friend Rosanna.
- I don't want you making her uncomfortable. - [both laughing]
No, don't worry. We're just getting to know each other.
[Rosanna speaking]
You're just saying that.
No. Come on. You're in good hands.
All right. You ready to go back and jump?
- Yeah, I'm ready to go. - All right, let's go.
[Claudia] One, two, three.
- That was good! - I went so high.
[Rosanna] Okay, now we start jumping same time.
One, two, three.
[Sam] Honestly, I think it takes a really strong and independent woman
to break out of, not only her culture, but her family.
And I think it's really, not only brave,
but incredibly strong of them
to just break out of everything that they've ever known
and learn something new.
[Rosanna] I had so much fun tonight.
I really feel like I fit in
and the only thing that made me feel different was my clothes.
And I don't wanna feel different anymore.
[Ada speaking over phone]
[Sabrina] Jethro took off.
[dramatic music playing]
[line ringing]
[Ada speaking over phone]
I'm all right. How are you?
Jethro took off a couple of days ago.
Yeah.
[Ada sighs]
[Ada] I'm just very confused why Jethro just up and left her with the babies.
He's a total jerk.
He didn't even say bye to Zekiah.
[sighs] I don't know. I don't know what to do.
I...
I just feel really bad 'cause I feel like it's all my fault.
[Sabrina] It's a typical Mennonite man move, is what it is.
He knows that I can't go do anything.
And that's why he's being this way.
Every single day I gotta watch Zekiah, like, look at me like,
"What the hell is going on, Mom?" Like...
And it's really hard 'cause if I cry,
I can't cry in front of him at all.
If he sees even one tear on my face, he starts crying.
And Zekiah walks around the house every single day
looking for his one dad that he has
and you wanna go be...
I think that's what's been the hardest about all of this
is 'cause Zekiah doesn't understand what's going on.
[sniffles]
[Ada] I just feel so bad for her
that she's down there by herself.
I just want Sabrina to be okay,
and the kids as well.
And I just want her to come to my house
because we need to look out for each other
and we need to take care of each other.
[Sabrina] I had to beg Jethro to FaceTime with him and Jethro called him then,
finally, and Zekiah looked at him and started crying,
so Jethro hung up on him, like...
He was such a good dad, though.
That's what I can't figure out, man.
He loves Zekiah, like...
I don't understand how you could just, like...
detach yourself like that from your child.
I don't know that it would be healthy for me
to go to PA, but at the same time,
I can't really be in here completely alone
with two babies day in, day out.
[Sabrina] I love Jethro
and I feel it's really important for my kids
to have their father in their lives.
But it's really hard.
Because now, there's multiple messages from multiple women.
And it makes me angry.
But I still love him. I love him regardless.
I don't want anybody to be mean to him.
Well, I'll think about it. I don't know what I'm gonna do.
I don't know if I can drive that far by myself with two babies,
but we'll see.
That's a long-ass drive.
I can't fly with two babies either. [scoffs]
Like...
I will.
All right. Thank you, love you, too.
[Sabrina] In your darkest moments,
you really realize who your true family is.
The only people I know that will be there for me
are Jeremiah, Carmela and Ada.
So, I don't know what to do.
[narrator] On the next episode of Return to Amish...
Now that I don't have Jethro anymore, like...
I don't have anybody, man.
We're family and we have your back.
Thank you.
[Nick] Beautiful, beautiful shot.
[Rosanna] Today I have a date with Nick and...
[Nick] Ooh!
This is exactly what I want in the English world.
A date with a boy that likes me.
[Nick] Gosh! You really are so pretty, though.
Can I give you a kiss?
[Maureen] I have really strong feelings for Danny.
I finally feel like I found the one.

[Maureen giggling]
[Carmela] You nervous?
[Jeremiah] Yeah, very nervous.
We're on our way to meet my biological cousin John
and what if he can't accept me? I don't know.
[knocking on door]
[Jeremiah] I'm just nervous.
Oh, my God!
